To the Honorable Mayor

Since the opening of the Iowa
Street Parking Ramp, we have ob-
served the functional operation of
the Seventh Street entrance and
because of the grade and the loca-
tion of the ticket dispenser have
determined it to be unsatisfactory.
The architect has studied this
problem and has prepared plans
and specifications for the receipt
of informal proposals on the min-
or modifications required to alle-
viate the situation.
We will be receiving these infor-
mal proposals in the near future
and hope to have the necessary re-
visions completed in approximately
one month.
Respectfully submitted,

Honorable Mayor and
Council Members
The City Planuing and Zoning
Commission has reviewed the
agreement for a preliminary engi-
neering study of the freeway sys-
tem in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
In reviewing this agreement, the
Commission has found the follow-
ing:
(1) The Dubuque Development
Program, whieb was adopted
by Council in 1965, includes a
statement about the general
transportation needs of tbe
community and a map illus-
trating a circulation system.
Included in this is a freeway-
expressway system.
(2) The Urban Area Transporta-
tion Plan has developed the
transportation plan for tbis
Urban Area into greater de-
tail. The recommendations in
the Urban Area Transporta-
tion Plan are consistent with
the Dubuque Development
Program, and furtber support
some of its general recom-
mendations.
(3) Tbe Freeway Corridor Study
is consistent with tbe Dubu-
que Development Program
and the Urban Area Transpor-
tation Plan and is a logical
next step in the progression
of events leading toward tbe
realizaticn of the proposed
facilities.
. (4) The ground rules established
in the agreement give sub-
stantial weight to social, eco- ,
nomic and environmental
considerations, as well as,
tbose tbat would routinely
influence such a corridor stu-
dy. The general slant of this
agreement is toward creating
a major lifeline to this com-
munity tbat will complement
the present and will have a
positive influence on, and
will be an integral part of,
the development long into the
future.
The Commission reviewed the
proposal to include Dodge Street,
from Locust to Concord, in the stu-
dy, with the cost being borne by
the City of Dubuque. It was the
Commission's opinion that this stu-
dy is needed, at this time, so that
sounder decisions can be made

Honorable Mayor
and Council Members
The Planning and Zoning Com-
mission has reviewed plans for the
City-County Law Enforcement Cen-
ter.
The Commission found that the
present space used by the Police
Department and Sheriff's Office
are inadequate for good perfor-
mance of the two functions. The
Commission also found that by
baving the two functions in proxi-
mity permits sharing of equipment,
facilities and personnel.
It is tbe opinion of tbe Commis-
sion that by having tbe two func-
tions housed togetber that a bet-
ter working relationship can be
developed and that benefits wil1
be derived from this relationship.
It is the recommendation of the
Planning Commission that the plans
for the Law Enforcement Center,
as proposed. be approved.

Commission has held a pubIc hear-
ing on a proposal to reclassify
from Multinle Residence to Local
Business "B", nroperty described
.. Lots 8, 9, and 10 of Block 1 and
Lots 8. 9. and 10 of Block 2 in
Westchester Subdivision. all in the
City of Dubuque, Iowa. This pro-
perty is located on the South side
of Asbury Road. approximately 800
feet west of Kennedy Road.
This would be an extension of an
existing Local Bnslness "B" Dis-
trict.
The applicant has proposed to
construct a super market on this
site, and it has been found that
the area presently zoned Local
Business "B" is not large enougb
to accomodate this use.
It was the opinion of the Com.
mission tbat the super market
would be an appropriate use and

was consistent with their original I
~nte,lt in establishing this Com-
roercial District. It was furtber the
opinion of the Commission that to
enlarge the District to accommo-
date this use would be consistent
wi!.h the planning for this area.
Abutting property on the south
and west is owned by the applicant
and is classified Multiple Resi-
dence, and property across Asbury
Road is classified Multiple Resi-
dence, also.
It ~s the recommendation of the
Commission that the proposal be

Tbe City Planning and Zoning
Commission has held a public hear-
ing on a proposal to amend Article
IV, Section 2 (i) of the Zoning Or-
dinance to include property de- I
scribed as Lot 2 of Lot 2 of Lot 2.
of Out Lot 670, all in the City of
Dubuque, I!>Wa.
, The above described property is
l(>Cated in a Multiple Family Dis-
trict. The proposal, as stated, would
perm.it a parking lot on the pro.
perly in aMition to the other uses
permitted in the Multiple Resi-
dence Di$trict.
This property lies adjacent to the
Sinclair station on the corner of
17th and Locusts Streets. The in-
tent of the application is to use
!.he parking lot in conjunction with
his filling station and garage busi-
nesses.
In reviewing this matter the
CoromissiDn found that traffic
coneestion exists in 17th Street in
the vicinity of this property and
that it is tbe recommendation of
tbe Traffic Committee that park.
iDe be removed from one side of
the street. The Commission also
Will"! that the bulk of the parking
is generated by the filling .ta1ion
and garage husiness.
It was tbegeneral Ðpiuion of the
Commission that this is not an ap-
propriate area to encourage ex.
pansioD of commercial uses, bow-
ever, because of the existing prob-
lems it was in the best interests of
everyone involved to find some so-
lution to the "arking and traffic
situation.
It is the recommendation of the
Commission tbat the proposal, as
stated, be approved so that an off-
street parking lot can be CoD-
structed.

gation of same and has conferred
with the daimant who has made
an offer of settlement of said
claim in the amount of $75.00 and
that in view of the foregoing it is

ment be accepted and that the

draw a warrant payable to Mrs.
Marie Schlueter in the amount of
$75.00 and transmit same to the

amount of $150.00 and alleging
that claimant suffered a sprained

ankle on Augnst 3, 1970 as the
result of allegedly stepping into
an irregular bole in the gutter at

Streets in this city at its south-
west corner.
This matter was referred to the
City Attorney who has made an
investigation of same and has con-
ferred with one of the witnesses
and has examined the site person-
ally and it is the opinion of this
writer that if there was an action-
able defect existing in said cross-
walk that the claimant was con-
tributorily negligent as a matter of
law by reason of tbe fact that if
he had kept a proper lookout for
his own safety he would have ob-
served the readily available alter-
nate safe route and accordingly,
it is the recommendation of tbe
City Attorney that said claim be
denied.

tion of this matter, and reviewed

red with claimant's attorney who

Mr. Ronald Kann spoke of Sec-
tion 15 of the proposed plumbing
ordinance which forbids plumbing
in your own home. To him this is
considered discriminatory and it
gives cause to go underground. Is
it wicked to do your own plumbing.
Mr. Robert Vernon of 120 Hill
Street seemed to be in agreement
with Mr. Kann. Building Commis-
sioner Bandy stated that Mr. Kann
was given an opportunity to pass
the examination. No one is re-
stricted from taking a test. Mr.
Dick Kaiser raised the point as to
passing a wiped joint test, which
seems to be a stumbling block for
an ordinary handy man that is
able to do plumbing. Mr. Bandy ex-
plained that his department would
rather be inspectors and not in-
structors. Mr. Harry Grant of State
Department of Health, addressed
the Council by referring to Section
368.17 of the State Code stating
the authority to examine and li-
cense plumbers rests with the City
Council providing the plumbing re-
gulations are not inconsistent with
state law. Some question was raised
as to the use of plastic pipe. Mr.
Grant stated that plastic pipe has
not been accepted by the State.

Wayne Norman spoke on the five
flags concept and stated their re-
port from the consnltants definite-
ly ascertains that the City needs a
civic center and they are satisfied
that the area is best tied in with
the Orpheum theatre. The theatre
is adequate to serve in connection
with an exhibition ball. The ascetic
and cultural impact is good and
someday could he looked upon
as the Key City of the Midwest. The
Acoustics in the thcatre cannot he
duplicated. It is their intention to
expand the committee and make it
a city wide venture. Mr. William
Woodward and Mr. Roger Rhom-
berg also spoke in favor of the ci-
vic ce,ter and up until now it has
at least a fifty-fifty chance for suc-
ce". The general thinking of the
group was that it will eventually
beco:ne the property of the City.
